Photography Center Announces Exhibition of Historic Buildings
The New Hampshire Center for Photography and the Belknap Mill invite the public to view its exhibition Survivors: 200 Years of New Hampshire Architecture.
This exhibition celebrates the rich history of architecture found in New Hampshire through a display of over 70 photographs drawn from a record of over 800 images made by NHCP members. All the buildings depicted are 200 years or more in age, and range from simple structures to elegant mansions. Volunteer photographers travelled across the state from the Connecticut River east to the Seacoast, and from Berlin south to the Massachusetts border to include as many cities and towns as possible.
Survivors: 200 Years of New Hampshire Architecture will run from April 3rd through April 29th in the Riverside Gallery at Laconia’s historic Belknap Mill. An Opening Reception will be held on Friday April 4th from 5:00-7:00PM, with photographers present to discuss their work or answer questions.
On Saturday April 5th at 12 noon, there will be a special presentation by local historian and author Warren Huse about the history and development of the area. Guided tours of historic Belknap Mill will also be available beginning at noon on Saturday.
Regular hours of the Riverside Gallery are 12N to 4PM Wednesday through Friday, and Saturday 10AM to 4PM.
The New Hampshire Center for Photography is a non-profit organization that supports the art of photography as a means for creative expression and cultural insight. The organization is devoted to the education and artistic development of its members and communities by providing exhibitions, publications, education, and outreach programs.
